Old Madam Lancaster finished speaking and didn’t hand the phone to Old Master Lancaster. Instead, she pressed the speakerphone button.
She also wanted to hear what Julian Lancaster wanted to say.
Julian Lancaster’s deep, magnetic voice came through the phone, and he spoke slowly: "Grandfather, as per our previous agreement, if Nina wins the competition against Heidi Leighton, you won’t interfere in our affairs. I hope you’ll keep your word."
"Hmph! I said I wouldn’t arrange blind dates for you with Heidi Leighton anymore. When did I say I wouldn’t get involved in your affairs? Besides, that woman Nina at the Lancaster Family treated Monica..."
However, before Old Master Lancaster could finish speaking, Julian Lancaster interrupted him, "I trust Nina."
With these words, he didn’t wait for Old Master Lancaster’s response and directly hung up the phone.
Hearing the busy tone from the other side, Old Master Lancaster could hardly believe his ears; Julian Lancaster dared to hang up on him!
Seeing Old Master Lancaster about to get angry, Old Madam Lancaster couldn’t help but speak up, "Alright, you should calm down for a bit; Julian has already started taking over the Lancaster Family business, and it’s a crucial time. Don’t disrupt his career."
Listening to Old Madam Lancaster, though a bit frustrated, Old Master Lancaster could only grumble.
After everything was over, Nina Sinclair packed her things and prepared to leave. She had now returned to the Sinclair Family, back to Crestfall, and perhaps her focus would entirely be on Crestfall from now on.
Today, it wasn’t just about competing against Heidi Leighton; she also came to Veridia to pack her belongings.
Although she hadn’t lived in Veridia for long, there were still quite a few things she needed to take.
Unexpectedly, she encountered someone she hadn’t anticipated.
Just a few days ago, she had suffered because of Vincent Lancaster, and now seeing him appear before her, Nina Sinclair felt a sense of disbelief. The last time she asked Julian Lancaster where Vincent had gone, but Julian didn’t tell her.
Vincent Lancaster looked much more haggard than before. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ No(ᴠ)ᴇlFire.nᴇt
His hair was cut very short, his face had quite a bit of stubble, and there were dark circles under his eyes, making him look deeply exhausted, as if he had become a different person.
Although Nina Sinclair and Vincent Lancaster had been together in the past, they did not part ways amicably.
The last time they met, it ended unpleasantly, and meeting again now, there was nothing good to say. She just glanced at Vincent Lancaster and turned to leave, only to find his tall figure blocking her way.
Vincent Lancaster looked deeply into Nina Sinclair’s eyes, with an emotion she could not quite read.
Nina Sinclair stepped back, "Mr. Lancaster, is there something you need?"
Vincent Lancaster had been detained by Julian Lancaster for a while, and it was only during this time that he realized that Julian Lancaster was indeed the Julian Lancaster!
He blamed Julian for his predicament.
It was Yvette Thompson who used every means and sought help from other members of the Lancaster Family to get him out. Otherwise, he might have died in there.
During this time, he constantly resented Julian Lancaster and developed an obsession with Nina Sinclair!
He believed that Nina Sinclair deliberately left him to climb up to Julian Lancaster, and the Nina he knew before was not at all.
Everything was because of Julian Lancaster!
"Nina, Julian Lancaster sent me to prison. You should compensate me. Leave Julian Lancaster and be with me!" After he finished speaking, Vincent Lancaster stepped forward and hugged Nina Sinclair tightly.
Nina Sinclair could not believe Vincent Lancaster would say something so shameless; she had never met someone so thick-skinned.
She struggled, "Let go of me!"
At this moment, Heidi Leighton and others happened to be coming downstairs. Seeing Nina Sinclair and Vincent Lancaster embracing, she quickly hid in a corner and took out her phone to take a series of photos of Nina Sinclair.
Unexpectedly, Nina Sinclair couldn’t stand solitude. She would send these photos to Julian Lancaster so he could see Nina Sinclair’s true nature.
